That's a good description of Farfalla in the first Darth Bane novel, but he was more likeable in the second...

I'm going Ben on this one_________________Mara: "Not many people Dare to hug me"

I quite liked Farfalla, but after reading Skuls' comment, I can't help but think that maybe that liking was piggybacked off of Hoth.

But I love Ben, and that's down to Aaron Allston*. He was the main reason I liked FOTJ.

My answer has to be Ben.

*There was one thing that I really didn't like, but I can't remember who wrote the book.

In what book does Ben attack Vestara in Jade Shadow? I think it may have been one of Golden's, but can't be sure.

^Yeah, that was Golden.

Been a while since I read the Bane books, but Farfalla being a little cool in book 2 sound familiar. Overdue on re-reading those._________________

Ben Skywalker wins 14-1

Even though he lost, it's cool to see that so many people liked Farfalla. I thought I was the only one.

Round 1, Match 12:

Dejah Duare

(Note: This isn't a picture of Dejah, because there isn't a picture of her in existence. As far as I can tell it's just a generic Zeltron)

As you can tell from my banner, my mind is full of "forlorn hopes, death-or-glory charges, and last stands", so of course I have to vote for Ganner._________________

I'm voting for Ganner.

I really hated Ganner at the beginning of NJO, but he grew on me as the series went on. His last stand is really one of the best deaths in the EU, and also when of the best scenes in NJO._________________"But it was so artistically done."

Ganner, he was a great sidekick to Horn, and for me he had some of the most impressive character development to come out of the NJO_________________Mara: "Not many people Dare to hug me"

Ganner for me. I don't read the series the other character is from, and by the time of his passing Ganner had become an incredible character and he then went out like a freaking beast._________________Perfection is a lifelong pursuit requiring sacrifice.
